GPRS Facts for the Internet Application Developer - Part I

Overview Modern GSM networks, now offer 'always-on' packet-based Internet traffic on mobile devices.

GPRS builds on top of the existing GSM standards and brings evolutionary but widespread changes and features to the GSM network. At this moment GPRS is offered in most GSM networks across the globe.
